The Backstagers #7

Holy wow that Veronica Fish cover is beautiful.

This issue broke my heart a little, especially with it being the second to last issue we're ever going to get.

Jory and the Backstagers being gone for two months is a huge thing, and I feel as though it is being trivialised just a little. They're all banned from seeing each other, but they still do (typical teenagers right).
Jory and Hunter no longer being together and crying about it in the library genuinely made me really upset because I've been rooting for them from the start.
Sasha playing football was also a super cute panel, and I wish we got to see more of him this issue.

Maybe I'm just not used to reading all ages comics. Anything bad that gets thrown at the Backstagers seems to be resolved in the same issue, or the next one. Anything done for dramatic purposes never seems to last long and it all turns out okay. It's either the comic's intended audience or the fact that we've only got eight issues, but exploration of any themes raised doesn't tend to happen or have enough depth for me.

I still like this comic, I really do, but something feels a little lacking for me.
